Overview

In Jira, project permissions determine who can perform various actions and access different features within a project. R4J has extended the Jira project permission schemes, so administrators able to define which users can perform certain operations within R4J.

We also acknowledge that some users might not need such restriction, so we added a switch to enable or disable this feature.

To start configuring users in certain R4J permissions, see Jira’s project permission for setting the necessary users.

Description

Tree modification

Users with this permission can add, reorder or remove issues/folders from R4J Tree structure.

a project’s permission scheme determines the roles that are allowed to perform certain types of actions or have certain types of access in a project (e.g. “Edit issues”, “Browse projects”). The project setting People allows a project administrator to define which users or groups are assigned to different roles in the project. R4JC adds entries to permission schemes for R4JC specific actions (e.g. “Baseline modification”). The Jira administrator then determines the project roles that are allowed to perform these actions in a given permission scheme (e.g. Developers), and the project administrator assigns users or groups to those roles.

Not every organization needs this flexibility, so R4JC provides an option to enable or disable it- see Configuration.
